Transportation[edit]
Metro Local line 240 and Metro Rapid line 744 run along Reseda Boulevard. Reseda also crosses the Orange Line at its station located at its intersection with Oxnard Street.
In 1977 the Los Angeles City Council failed to approve a plan to create a "Reseda to the Sea" link from the San Fernando Valley to L.A.'s Westside at Sunset Blvd. The plan was revisited in the early 90's -- Reseda Blvd. was widened to four lanes as far as Mulholland Drive to the South in anticipation of much-needed relief for existing cross-mountain passes -- but was again rejected amidst concerns of environmental and neighborhood impacts.[citation needed]

Landmarks along Reseda Boulevard (south to north)[edit]
Marvin Braude Mulholland Gateway Park – a 1,500-acre (610 ha) preserve of wild land located in the Santa Monica Mountains at the southern terminus of Reseda Boulevard in Tarzana.
